A phone conversation

Here is a complete (word to word) conversation between me and one of my colleagues.
She is around 35 (+/-3 years), she looks like a deer caught in the lights of a car. I don't want to write she is dumb... ok I DO want to write she is dumb... but in a way that you want to give her a cookie and tell her to go and play with the other kids.

Just to be clear, thanks god it was a phone conversation...

Me: hello Mrs Deer colleague( hereinafter - yes I spent last two days translating agreements to English- DC)

DC: hello?

Me: Jana calling, I was told you called me.

DC: Who is there?

Me: Jana from Mr. Dvorecky

DC: WHO???

Me: JANAAAAA from upstairs!!!!

DC: WHOOOO?????

Me: *looking blankly at the wall and counting to 10*

DC: *after 10 more seconds - I know, I was counting, remember:))* Oooooooh JANKA, hello, what do you need?

Me: You called me?

DC: GEEEE RIIIIGHT, I did...

Me: *waiting*

*still waiting*

Then I guessed: Was is because of the price calculation?

DC: What?

Me: The price calculation...

DC: Yes, what is wrong with it?

Me: Nothing, just why did you call me?

DC: Because of the price calculation.

Me: *almost broke a pencil* Yeees? Are you doing it?

DC: What?

Me: THE PRICE CALCULATION!!!!!!!

DC: Are you?

Me: No, not yet...

DC: Do you want to?

Me: If you are not doing it, someone has to...

DC: But do you want to do it?

Me: If you are not, I will have to...

DC: Well, in fact I have done it already... Kind of...

Me: KIND OF???

DC: weeeeell it is done...

ME: So why did you call me?

DC: To find out if you want to do it....

Me: But it was already done, right...

DC: weeeell, yes...

Me: *almost crying from frustration* Geee, Mrs DC, you are wonderful, that you did the calculation, THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH... Have a nice weekend (and in an ideal world a nice rest of your life....MUAHAHAHAAAAAA)

DC: you are just being nice

me: DUUUUUUUUUUH

DC: Bye Jankaaaa

Me: *doing a happy dance*
